a

Recommended cut-off point when using the PHQ-9 as a screener for depression (Kroenke and Spitzer, 2002).

b

At least mild depressive symptoms, see inclusion criteria (Spitzer et al., 1999).

c

PHQ-9 drop of 50% or more resulting in a score below 10 (Spitzer et al., 1999).

Note: at baseline, all participants had a PHQ-9 score of ⩾5 due to inclusion criteria.

d

A clinical cut-off of 10 on the ISI is often used in insomnia research (Morin et al., 2011).

e

A change of 8 points or more; considered to be a clinically meaningful change (Morin et al., 2011).

Note: At baseline, all participants had an ISI score of >10 due to the inclusion criteria.
